Contextual Overview

² He said: " Adonai is my Rock, my fortress and deliverer, ³ the God who is my Rock, in whom I find shelter, my shield, the power that saves me, my stronghold and my refuge. My savior, you have saved me from violence. ⁴ I call on Adonai , who is worthy of praise; and I am saved from my enemies. ⁵ "For death's breakers were closing over me, the floods of B'liya‘al terrified me, ⁶ the ropes of Sh'ol were wrapped around me, the snares of death lay there before me. ⁷ In my distress I called to Adonai ; yes, I called to my God. Out of his temple he heard my voice, and my cry entered his ears. ⁸ "Then the earth quaked and shook, the foundations of heaven trembled. They were shaken because he was angry. ⁹ Smoke arose in his nostrils; and from his mouth, devouring fire, with coals blazing from it. ¹⁰ He lowered heaven and came down with thick darkness under his feet. ¹¹ He rode on a keruv and flew, he was seen on the wings of the wind.
